When you are starting a family, you will really feel the pressure and challenge arising. Hence, new mothers tend to develop attitudes that help them adapt to their new environment.
Adjusting to a new baby, cooking meals, raising kids and attending to your hubby are only a few of the noted responsibilities you have as a super mom. Indeed, motherhood can be really stressful as described by WiKi How; thus, being a mom is a kind of job where you cannot resign from -- being around 24/7. While embracing motherhood, women likely develop these attitudes unintentionally.
Best In "Just So You Know " Reasons
Having little fights with little kids are undeniable. You need to reason out every single action you do since kids are prone to mood swings, some negativity and really fond of asking "why?" as shared by the University of Illinois Extension. After handling these situations, you are now having a basket full of "because I said so" reasons.
Handle Gross Stuff More Than Ever
You think you already saw the most ridiculous stuff when you had a vacation in the farm when you were a child? Well, say no-no because motherhood offers you to face not only boogers but body fluids and all that you've never thought before. But now, you just cannot get away from all these. Even you are fast asleep, eating delicious snacks or just finished a warm bath, you cannot say no because it is no one's responsibility but you.
Bring Out The Monster Inside You
Not in a sense that you will get angry or what, but you cannot deny the fact that you have all the reason to get stressed out. Sometimes, mothers forgot to take care of themselves because they are really into their husband and kids. They will only realize that they really change after taking a look in the mirror. Therefore, grab the comb or take some time to pamper yourself in the salon or spa. Your kids and husband will be really pleased to see you happy and -- blooming while taking care of them.
Be A Wonder Woman
It is not only the children who can actually ask "why?" and have a concern for everything. As a mother, you only want the best for your family. You seek explanations behind the things that are happening or even surf the web and ask advice on how to do things the fastest and easiest way possible. Don't fret, it's actually normal. Soon enough, you will also be an expert in the best job you've ever had.
Having Octopus Hands And Doing The Ninja Moves
Cooking meals while feeding the baby and spinning the laundry, or having a coffee early in the morning while ironing the clothes and preparing breakfast. It is true, multi-tasking and time management ditch the problem of not finishing the to-do-list. This is one of the talents mothers possess that is really admirable -- a ninja mom!
Love Truly And Passionately
Mothers live through their little one's eyes as posted on News Hour. You can feel if they are suffering and in pain or if they are happy and excited. You bear them for nine months hence, you want to make their lives better by simply trying to give everything as long as you can.
You spend sleepless nights when they are sick and even give up on all the things you used to have just for them. No one can ever love the way most mothers can -- selfless and unconditional.
Generally speaking, despite how stressed out, sleep deprived, self-loathing and self-judgmental mothers get sometimes, they would not exchange their families for the world. There's just something about their family that makes every second of the sacrifices really counts.
